I had a really good dish of Cantonese duck. Fresh and delicious. The staff let me charge my phone and sit for a while after I ate while it was raining. It wasn't busy but it was quite early- people were starting to come in as I left.

I went here for a rave in the middle of the night and danced until dawn! It was brilliant fun. Great space for it and they had a bar.

Really really expensive - €29 & I did it all in 4 hours. I didn't buy any food in there because it was extortionate as well. Over 70 different animals. It's flat so easily walked round (there's a cool place to climb up for a high vantage though). I particularly enjoyed the Ice World. I can really relate to those walruses 🤣 and the penguins are delightful. Not much is written in English though and I'd no internet for translating. The orangutans & otters together also captivated me for ages. An elephant touched my hand with her trunk 🐘😍 and the mandrill's bottom is like a beautiful 🌈

Very square and tidy white building. We saw two great exhibitions - Mehr Licht - old and traditional, and Refik Anadol - new and digital. A good contrast, yet they both had some similar themes. It was €12 each which is a bit steep I think. I'm used to art being free to look at. The coffee shop has tasty if expensive food and pleasant staff. The shop has a lot of cool things too but mostly out of my price range. Very nice to look at!
